Residents are reminded that county tax assessment lists must be returned to the County Assessor’s Office before March 1, 2017 to avoid late penalties based on the assessed value of the property that was not reported. Please check your 2017 Personal Property Assessment sheet closely. Items put on last year will be listed and will not have to be relisted. Anything purchased January 1, 2016 will need to be added in the appropriate place. Please double check the years, size of motor, etc., as it will make a difference in your valuation and taxes. If you have livestock, it needs to be added to the back of the sheet. Livestock does not carry over like vehicles. If you are single and over 65 or totally disabled and you total household income is $27,500 or less, or if you or your spouse are over 65 and your total household income is $30,000 or less and you paid real estate taxes or rent on the home you occupied, you may qualify to get all or part of your county real estate money back. This is called the Property Tax Credit Refund. If you have more than five acres or you own a mobile home and no land, you will need a special form 948 to attach to your paperwork. The 948 form is available in the St. Clair Co. Assessor’s Office and they will fill one out at your request. If you rent your home, you must complete the MO-CRP (Certification of Rent Paid) for the year to get a refund if you qualify. There will be someone in the Courthouse to assist with these forms at no charge. For information, call the St. Clair County Assessor’s Office at 417-646-2449.
